Patek Philippe timepieces never cease to mesmerize us. Their latest timepiece, designed just for women, and called the "First Ladies Chronograph" Ref. 70171 R. is another stunning creation. The timepiece was unveiled to commemorate the opening of Patek Philippe's new Art Deco salon at n��10 de la place Vend?me. The beautiful timepiece flaunts the salon's 1930's art deco style and has a rose gold cushion case and rounded lugs. What is more, this beautiful timepiece was made for ladies by ladies (the design team comprised of women only) only. The dial of the timepiece is available in either silver opaline or black with guilloch��, with two chronograph registers below the central axis, and feuille hands in rose gold. A gem, it glitters with136 diamonds that are encrusted around the bezel.
